About our toilet chip repair in Thorney Hill
Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will tell you if that is what we find. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. We’re often asked to fix damage from dropped items and pieces knocked off during fitting, across toilet pans, pedestals and porcelain.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

For landlords and businesses
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Thorney Hill as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- A crack that leaks water
- A crack through the bowl or trap
- A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)

How it works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take one to two hours, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
- Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
- We sand it flush.
- We colour-match and finish the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
How to prepare
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
How to get a price
To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Thorney Hill questions
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Dorset.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Why repair rather than replace?
A new toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
